I have been teaching in the Minneapolis Public School system since 1991. My entire teaching career has been in a Montessori school. I have taught all grade levels - pre-K through sixth grade - and have a special love for each age. I earned my BA from Augsburg College, my Montessori certification from St. Catherine's and my MA from St. Thomas.

Teaching Philosophy

To teach kids to love learning. To meet each child where they are at and to help them reach for new knowledge where ever they can find it.
